We were so excited to have my parents come for a visit. They are missionaries at the Palmyra Temple in New York. We got to visit them this summer, but haven't seen them since then. The temple was closed for two weeks so they came to see us and get warm. It is freezing in upstate New York!
On Valentine's Day, they came to the school to eat with the kids. They were a little late getting to the school and when they got there, Baylie was crying because she thought they weren't coming. One of my friends caught this tender picture of Baylie hugging my dad.
Before long, all was well!
And Jalen soon joined them. The kids were especially excited when Grammy and Granddad came back to check them out a little early.
My mom taught third grade for many years and she loves to help my kids with their school work.
Normally we do a lot of sight seeing when my parents are here, but they were so tired, they just wanted to relax. The kids and I stayed home from school on Friday. We stayed home most of the day, but did take a drive to the Columbia temple. It's under scaffolding because they're redoing the grout work.
On Monday, the kids and David had a holiday from school, but I had to go to meetings. Such a bummer! They all went to the zoo. We have such a great zoo.
My parents were here almost a week, but the time went by way too quickly. I love my parents so much. I'm so grateful that my kids have such a great relationship with my parents. I wish we could spend more time together. Nothing is more important than family.
